I found a couple more strange things in the booter:
- The font name field in the preferences dialog seems to be ignored.
It gets reset to Geneva when the dialog is closed and reopened.
- Clearing out the "Partition Name" field (probably unnecessary, but I
did it with the old booter and it worked fine) causes the booter to
tell me that the magic number on my filesystem is bad when I try to
boot. This one had me scared for a few minutes.
BTW, how about throwing in a 'vers' resource before said release? If
we're going to have meaningful version numbers, we might as well make
'em official-looking. ;-)
